La migrazione di motivi decorativi tra l'Iran e il Caucaso
Abstract
The paper focuses on the exchange of decorative elements between the Iranian world and the Caucasus before and in the early Islamic period. Some of the still enigmatic motifs widespread in pre-Islamic Persian art of the Sasanian period (224-651 CE) could possibly be explained through the analysis of similar elements that are found in the artisitic production of Georgia, Armenia and Azerbayjan.
